two hundred and nineteen men were jammed into the hold amidships

Day 219: I was very productive, and then very pooped. I loaded the truck up with about 15-20 bags of wet leaves and ivy vines, moved about ten 5-gallon buckets full of clay dirt and vine roots out of the flower bed over to the side of the house, put down ten 40-pound bags of topsoil, planted a row of sunflower seeds, and started on pulling vines and leveling the ground on the other side of the porch for another flower bed. Then, later in the day, I attended a three-act opera (without passing out). Impressive, eh?
